Sounds kinky. I heard the light novel was popular, and I can kind of see why.

Not actually kinky. It's a actually a pretty sweet love comedy.

Its kinda rare for one of those romcoms to get 2 cour these days, so I'm hoping this one will be good enough to make it worth it.

My Little Anime Can't Be This Misogynistic!

Come on, Japan. I thought you'd be above this. Guess I thought wrong.

I'm more surprised that people are even offended by this stuff anymore in anime. Its standard fare and I'd of thought that people would be desensitized to it by now.

The novels are complete so in a way it makes sense to make it 2-cour and try to do one adaptation.

Just because it's standard fare doesn't mean we should just passively accept it.

Misogyny is misogyny. This anime has one of the most chauvinistic premises I've seen in the past few years.

Switch the sexes of the two main characters.

Now, would you still find it objectionable? I have my doubts.

Who told you that this is 2-cour? Nothing in the article or trailer seems to suggest that.

The TV station airing it listed their upcoming anime along with episode counts, and it was listed at 24 episodes.

Is that reliable? Didn't the same thing happened for Papakiki (listed by CR as 26 episodes) but was reduced to 1-cour at the end.

EDIT:

Off-Topic: This show NEEDS to be reviewed by Zac in the next Fall 2012 Anime Preview Guide. Who agrees with me?
